    I love the controller and all the customizable things but my stick is already drifting. Get the protection plan for sure! The internal battery and the 40 hour battery life is my favorite part

    After many months (maybe years) of my brother telling me to get this I got to say, nope...no really, controller feels amazing, not $180+ dollars amazing tho, yes...mapping, customizing, interchangeable d-pads and joysticks, ja da ja da...still not be able to macro just doesn't do it for me, for example: if you want to map a L1+R1 in one button (paddle in my case) you can't do it, while cheaper options (like 8bitdo pro2 controller) can...I just can't fathom the price tag for just the way the controller feels...sorry, it's a no for me.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    This controller looks and feels great. Also it responds very well. I love that you can adjust the joy sticks and that it has an push button customization setting. All and all The Xbox Elite Controller 2 is way better than the first Elite Controller. GREAT JOB!!!

    Controller is great and i would definitely recommend on buying one over any controller ! But after 6 months , my left stick is getting a lag when I walk backwards playing zombies or multiplayer on Cold War , good thing I paid for my geek squad coverage !

    If you are looking for a pro controller that is easily adaptable and has a long lasting battery, this is the controller to get. Most buttons are replaceable, there many ways to customize, easy to change configurations, you forget don't have to charge as often.

    Really works great, much easier to play with then the old controllers , but is on the expensive side. The down side is if you need a controller for your friend to play duels their stuck using the old ones. And having to keep both new and old around just Clutters the place up

    Definitely an improvement from the black series 2 ones. They tried to right their wrongs with these white, red and blue ones (America!) . They are built sturdier i feel. And if you had the black one before with the charger base and all the paddles and such, just switch the paddles over to this core controller because it doesn't come with any of that. To me it was a no brainer . Definitely xbox best controller so far. The razer wolverine is nice, but the paddles are in a very awkward spot. This elite series 2 is where it's at, better than the original runs in black.
